snow bird
2009 January 5
I am feeling very sorry for myself today-I broke a crowned tooth on New Year’s Day and today it was time to say goodbye to it. I have a very sore face and the anaesthetic is making me feeling weird, but I think all will be for the best when it’s healed.
Can’t say I have achieved much. I made another little bird-adapting the original pattern and thinking of further variations. This little fellow is grey velvet with copper coloured silk extremities.
And this morning a little snow fell, dusting the lawn and setting off the palm tree. I love the juxtaposition of snow and sub tropical plants.






I love the colors on this bird, Judith… copper is so lovely. Sorry about your tooth, I did the same thing last fall, not a fun way to begin the new year! Pamper yourself a bit!
Poor you – hope the mouth is feeling better by now.
Don’t gardens look pretty with alight dusting of snow – like icing sugar on mince pies.
lovely bird. i hopr your mouth feels better soon.
ow, ow, ow. I went through so much dental tribulation in 2008; thank god for modern dentistry, but oh what a pain. Feel better soon!
i hate dentists. feel better soon.
I hope your mouth feels better soon, dental work is never fun! Your little birdies are gorgeous!
Hope your pain goes away asap. I enjoy your whimsical birds!
this little bird reminds me of a raven–a favorite of mine. hope the tooth feels better soon.
Owwwww! Having lost a tooth last year you have my fullest sympathy. I was surprised how painful and long the after effects were
However, it does look like you’re making the best of things with your flock of birds
Hope you feel better soon and feeling able to come out and play!
